Nunavik Parks bookings filling up as summer tourists return – Nunatsiaq News

May 20, 2022

Nunavik Parks is hoping for a tourist boom this year as visitors from outside the region begin booking their summer travels.

Nunavik is home to four Quebec national parks that are operated and staffed locally by Kativik regional government: Kuururjuaq National Park and Ulittaniujalik National Park in Kangiqsualujjuaq, Tursujuq National Park in Umiujaq, and Pingualuit National Park in Kangiqsujuaq.
